[00:00] ​​​ ​and if they arrest us by ​ ​​ ​​ ​the end of the day,​ ​​ ​​​ ​But if we escape, they get nothing.​ ​​ ​​​ ​DON'T WORRY GUYS!! ​ ​​ ​​ ​I have a plan.​ ​​

[00:13] ​​​ ​We gotta get outta here!​ ​​ ​​​ ​Let's BLOW it up!​ ​​ ​​​ ​Me and my four friends just escaped ​ ​​ ​​ ​from one hundred real cops.​ ​​

[00:30] ​​​ ​Let's GO, let's gooo!​ ​​ ​​​ ​setting up hundreds of cameras,​ ​​ ​​​ ​Let's just hope it's enough to keep us ​ ​​ ​​ ​from getting caught.​ ​​

[00:43] ​​​ ​Don't get arrested.​ ​​ ​​​ ​I'm the LAST ONE they're gonna catch.​ ​​ ​​​ ​We should've done more ​ ​​ ​​ ​cardio before this.​ ​​

[00:57] ​​​ ​Darius hid inside a fort covered in hay,​ ​​ ​​​ ​and Alison…​ ​​ ​​​ ​We got the fire out!​ ​​

[01:12] ​​​ ​POLICE!!​ ​​ ​​​ ​What about these straw bales right here?​ ​​ ​​​ ​MrBeaAasst!​ ​​

[01:27] ​​​ ​We're on somebody.​ ​​ ​​​ ​What's your name? ​ ​​ ​​ ​Is it Darius?​ ​​

[01:42] ​​​ ​Let me GOOoOO!!​ ​​ ​​​ ​and Darius has already been arrested.​ ​​ ​​​ ​They're forming a line and ​ ​​ ​​ ​sweeping the city.​ ​​

[01:54] ​​​ ​A'ight, Tareq, hand me the map.​ ​​ ​​​ ​and are going and checking ​ ​​ ​​ ​every nook and cranny.​ ​​ ​​​ ​is if we can somehow sneak ​ ​​ ​​ ​past the line,​ ​​

[02:06] ​​​ ​If there was ever a time to penetrate ​ ​​ ​​ ​the line, it would be now.​ ​​ ​​​ ​I don't think the cops realize ​ ​​ ​​ ​there's tunnels under the city.​ ​​ ​​​ ​Let's just keep moving.​ ​​

[02:20] ​​​ ​We might be able to make a run for it ​ ​​ ​​ ​once we get above ground.​ ​​ ​​​ ​Hopefully, the cops won't get there ​ ​​ ​​ ​before we do.​ ​​

[02:32] ​​​ ​they somehow found me. ​ ​​ ​​ ​I don't know how,​ ​​ ​​​ ​Find the best hiding spot--​ ​​ ​​​ ​You should be apologizing ​ ​​ ​​ ​to your mom.​ ​​

[02:44] ​​​ ​who successfully survive ​ ​​ ​​ ​this 12-hour police chase,​ ​​ ​​​ ​wooOOo!​ ​​ ​​​ ​These guys are crafty. ​ ​​ ​​ ​They're sneaky.​ ​​

[02:58] ​​​ ​anything that you see ​ ​​ ​​ ​that's out of place,​ ​​ ​​​ ​And remember, each arrest awards ​ ​​ ​​ ​our department one hundred thousand dollars.​ ​​ ​​​ ​Oh, we are out in the open, boys.​ ​​

[03:11] ​​​ ​If my logic is correct, their line ​ ​​ ​​ ​literally walked over top of us​ ​​ ​​​ ​We should be able to just ​ ​​ ​​ ​run across this field.​ ​​ ​​​ ​this video's screwed.​ ​​

[03:26] ​​​ ​Okay…​ ​​ ​​​ ​[dramatic music]​ ​​ ​​​ ​I'm good, I'm good.​ ​​

[03:38] ​​​ ​Whereeee are we going?!​ ​​ ​​​ ​hahH…​ ​​ ​​​ ​EVER.​ ​​

[03:53] ​​​ ​I think that's HER!​ ​​ ​​​ ​BAD news!​ ​​ ​​​ ​Jimmy, they're on us.​ ​​

[04:05] ​​​ ​hOH!​ ​​ ​​​ ​Lemme see your hands!​ ​​ ​​​ ​I've ever experienced in my entire life.​ ​​

[04:20] ​​​ ​I have a hidden room planned here ​ ​​ ​​ ​that they're NEVER gonna find.​ ​​

[04:34] ​​​ ​[suspenseful music]​ ​​ ​​​ ​Oh, this is not good.​ ​​ ​​​ ​Ummm…​ ​​

[04:49] ​​​ ​Even though they found my secret room, ​ ​​ ​​ ​they didn't grab this detonator.​ ​​ ​​​ ​This is gonna come in handy later. ​ ​​ ​​ ​You'll see why.​ ​​ ​​​ ​allows this TV to swap through ​ ​​ ​​ ​every single camera across the city.​ ​​

[05:04] ​​​ ​rGHehh!​ ​​ ​​​ ​OKAyy…​ ​​ ​​​ ​This might be the riskiest part ​ ​​ ​​ ​of the entire video.​ ​​

[05:20] ​​​ ​At this point, we're halfway ​ ​​ ​​ ​into the challenge.​ ​​ ​​​ ​The majority of our hideouts ​ ​​ ​​ ​have been exposed,​ ​​ ​​​ ​which is why what you're about to see​ ​​

[05:33] ​​​ ​is my backup master plan, ​ ​​ ​​ ​hopefully unfolding as I intended.​ ​​ ​​​ ​And it all starts with what ​ ​​ ​​ ​Nolan is about to do.​ ​​

[05:49] ​​​ ​Yo, what's up?!​ ​​ ​​​ ​Yeah, I saw it.​ ​​ ​​​ ​Go, Taylor, GO!​ ​​

[06:03] ​​​ ​I really just wanted to have ​ ​​ ​​ ​a lot of explosions.​ ​​ ​​​ ​but mannn, does it look EPIC.​ ​​ ​​​ ​BOOOOOM!!​ ​​

[13:15] ​​​ ​There's a building with an underground tunnel ​ ​​ ​​ ​that runs directly to the jail,​ ​​ ​​​ ​And if they spot us, ​ ​​ ​​ ​that tunnel is the only way out.​ ​​

[13:28] ​​​ ​we are TRYING to avoid ​ ​​ ​​ ​right now.​ ​​ ​​​ ​Breaking these guys out of jail might be ​ ​​ ​​ ​the dumbest thing I've ever done,​ ​​ ​​​ ​but I couldn't let Tareq and Darius go home ​ ​​ ​​ ​with nothing for their moms.​ ​​
